Note: <888> 10/18/07 Thursday 6:50 P.M..:  I ate the rest of the goldfish crackers.  I ate two 3 inch by 1 inch by 5/16th inch slides of New York extra sharp cheddar cheese.  It is the nature of my connections in the republican party www.gop.com  and the American Dairy Association I Love Cheese!, I tend not to run out of dairy products, although to be quite frank, I would not even know where to begin to milk a cow.  CIO 

Note: <888> 10/18/07 Thursday 5:55 P.M..:  I went out after the last message.  I chatted with some neighbors.  I went by the Greenwich Library, and I returned the Microsoft Outlook 2007 book.  I chatted with a couple of staff members.  I then went by the Greenwich Hospital Thrift shop, and they have some of their clothes on sale.  The have two upholstered wooden swivel desk chairs for $45 each which would look nice at a computer desk and be practical.  I then went to the Greenwich Hospital Outpatient Clinic, and they cleaned my teeth and took X-rays.  I still need a crown on one of my rear teeth, but for Connecticut state Medicaid to pay that I would have to make a couple of trips to the University of Connecticut medical center dental clinic in Farmington, Connecticut, which I probably could afford to drive to, but with all of the traffic in that direction, it might be dangerous, particularly if the weather were not clear on the appointment days.  I have an appointment at the Greenwich Hospital Outpatient clinic to get my flu shot this Monday morning.  I went to my usual 3 P.M. appointment.  I then drove down by the waterfront on Steamboat Road.  I do not want to hog the few free parking places at the Senior and the Arts center, so I did not stop there.  I verified that the Nantucket Light Ship is moored at the Delamar Hotel in Greenwich Harbor.  It looks pretty much the same as it use to look, when it was moored on the Strait wharf in Nantucket in the summers when I lived there in season until 1983.  They use to put it out at sea during the colder months as a floating light house, but I guess with modern navigation techniques, they no longer need it, so it is a deluxe suite at the Delamar Hotel.  I have never been inside of it, so I do not know what it looks like inside.  However, as a light ship, it would have a powerful light beacon, so they could put it further out in Greenwich Harbor and run its beacon at night, so everyone on the waterfront in this area would see the Greenwich beacon from it.  However that would cost money to keep it fueled and going.  I then went by the Chase Bank on Mason Street.  I then returned home, and I picked up my mail.  I am making up a batch of Formula One http://mikelouisscott.com/icetea.htm .  CIO

Note: <888> 10/18/07 Thursday 11:15 A.M..:   I have a dental appointment at 1:15 P.M., and I also have my usual 3 P.M. appointment, so I will now shut down the primary computer, and I will shower and clean up, and get ready to go out.  CIO

Note: <888> 10/18/07 Thursday 9:30 A.M..:  I was awake yesterday at 9 A.M..  I ate breakfast of oatmeal with honey and a sliced banana, a toasted English muffin with olive oil, orange and grape and cranraspberry juice with vitamins and supplements and coffee with milk and splenda sweetener.  I went back to bed until 3 P.M..  I chatted with a friend.  I made my bed, and I washed the breakfast dishes.  I chatted with another friend.  I went outside, and I chatted with neighbors, and I picked up my mail.  I moved my car to its usual place.  I ate some goldfish crackers.   I chatted with some other friends.  I showed my neighbor my new Endless.com: Slippers International Men's 8018A Deerskin Moccasin Slipper: Categories in size 9 medium in antique color for $19.89 less one day free shipping discount of $5 for $14.89 total.  I guess they are eating more deer in China, so they have extra deer skin.  I chatted with a relative.  I made and ate the same dinner as the last two nights.  I went to bed at 11 P.M..  I was awake at 7 A.M. this morning. I ate breakfast of oatmeal with honey and a sliced banana, a toasted English muffin with olive oil, orange and grape and cranraspberry juice with vitamins and supplements and coffee with milk and splenda sweetener.  I chatted with the The Delamar on Greenwich Harbor , and they now have the Nantucket Light Ship moored at their dock with its private suite available for guest accommodations for the next year.  I called up the Town and County of Nantucket - Police Department , and I told them their boat was now down here.  I also told them that people are still looking for http://mikelouisscott.com/fred.htm whom once was a summer resident in Nantucket, but now could be anywhere in the world.  CIO

Note: <888> 10/17/07 Wednesday 1:00 A.M..:  I went out after the last message.  I went downtown, and I walked the entire length of Greenwich Avenue and the train station area.  I used the bathroom at the senior and the arts center.  I chatted with a couple of people.  After my walk, I drove down by the waterfront, and I chatted with a couple of fishermen.  I then went by the Greenwich Library, and I chatted with a patron and some of the staff.  I then surfed the internet for a while. I then went by the Stop and Shop.  I then went by the Chase Bank ATM machine on Mason Street.  I then returned home.  I ate the same dinner as last night.  I chatted with a few people that I have talked with before.  It is my viewpoint that certain events worldwide have occurred because the Cherokee Indians in Oklahoma with their monopoly power in the world oil market are running a worldwide international financial cartel with their oil revenues from this century.  On the Russian volcano if it erupted it would disrupt flight patterns between the West Coast of North America and Asia.  I am tired, and although I feel I need the exercise to stay in shape exercise walking, I find that dealing with the general public downtown is distracting from my primary activities which I consider important, or I would not spend most of my time involved with them.  I am tired, so I will now shut down the primary Vista computer, and I will go to bed soon.  CIO 

Note: <888> 10/16/07 Tuesday 5:45 P.M..:  I chatted with a relative.  The deer skin slippers arrived from Louisville, Kentucky.  They fit me perfectly, and they really are quite deluxe and comfortable and well made.  I ate two bowls of goldfish crackers.  I will now go out for an evening stroll.  CIO 

Note: <888> 10/16/07 Tuesday 5:15 P.M..:  I woke up at 8 A.M. this morning.  I ate breakfast of oatmeal with honey and a sliced banana, a toasted English muffin with olive oil, orange and grape and cranraspberry juice with vitamins and supplements and coffee with milk and splenda sweetener.  I made my bed, and I washed the breakfast dishes.  I chatted with a relative and a friend.  I threw out some garbage, and I chatted with neighbors.  I stored away some computer parts boxes, so the bedroom area is a bit neater looking.  I went outside, and I chatted with neighbors, and I picked up my mail.  I ate a baloney and cheese sandwich with potato chips and a sliced dill pickle and a glass of iced tea.  I showered, and I cleaned up.  I went to my 3 P.M. appointment, but my appointment was cancelled.  I returned home.  I chatted with some neighbors.  The Greenwich Hospital Thrift Shop will not be moving to their new location across from the Hamilton Avenue school for a year.  I hung up the schedule for the Greenwich Flu shot clinics in the laundry room.  I called for an appointment at the Greenwich Hospital Outpatient clinic for my flu shot, but I have not heard back from them.  My medical insurance program does not cover flu shots at the Greenwich Flu shot clinics.  I am waiting for UPS: Tracking Information on the order for Endless.com: Slippers International Men's 8018A Deerskin Moccasin Slipper: Categories in size 9 medium in antique color for $19.89 less one day free shipping discount of $5 for $14.89 total.  It seemed like it was busy downtown, so I guess the local economy is still booming.  Of course it takes a lot of people to keep Greenwich, Connecticut going whether the owners of the property actually are here or not depending on their world travels in search of greater enlightenment.  Basically it seems all of the wealthy people have to travel a lot to make ends meet, so they appear to be involved in business activities which involve crossing international borders frequently.  I was told the Nantucket Light ship has been seen in the Greenwich Harbor.  I left a message with Le Languedoc Bistro & Inn | A Nantucket restaurant for over 30 years. about it possibly getting cold up north.  The owners of the Le Languedoc out in Nantucket also own Sister Kate's in Stowe, Vermont Stowe Mountain Resort, Stowe, Vermont - Skiing and Snowboarding at Vermont's best ski vacation resort, so they do not go south in the off season in Nantucket, and their winter livelihood depends on the snow season in Vermont.  They employ people in Nantucket in the summer from the Stowe Ski patrol in the off season, so since on top of the mountain in Stowe, Vermont, it can be minus 50 degrees Fahrenheit in the winter, they tend to be a cold weather group of people.  CIO

I chatted with the Key West Hotel Resorts & Florida Keys Beach Accommodations - Casa Marina Resort Key West , and I explained to them that if it gets a lot colder up north after a volcano eruption that there are about a billion people that live further north I do, so if they start going south because of the cold, it tends to get a lot busier in tiny areas like Cayo Hueso.  However, if it is relatively cooler down south, there is also less hurricane activity.

From experience, I know that if it gets real cold up north, so many people go down south, that there tends to be a surplus of energy up north, so I guess I will survive another winter in Greenwich, Russia.  CIO

Note: <888> 10/15/07 Monday 11:45 P.M..:  I mailed in the mailroom downstairs two copies of the Greenwich Hospital Thrift Shop tax deduction forms to an interested relative whom keeps track of the taxes.  I kept two copies for myself.  I went outside, and I got my snow brushes out of the rear storage area, and I left them in the rear area of the Buick wagon to have available for colder weather.  Once it gets colder, I still have to close up the General Electric Profile 15,500 BTU air conditioner with Styrofoam, and check the duct tape on the side around the Plexiglas to have it all sealed up for winter and lower the curtain over it, and move the tower fan further to the left in front of it to move the electric heat around in the winter.  I do not remove the unit in the winter, since I once removed it, and it made no difference in the electric heating bills.  It is a heavy fixed unit, and although there is room to store it in the building, I generally use it later in the season after they remove the other units, and much earlier in the spring.  After having lived at this particular location since December 1988 or close to 19 years, a lot of my seasonal routines make sense to me, if they don't make sense to newcomers.  I have a 3 P.M. appointment tomorrow.  CIO

Note: <888> 10/15/07 Monday 10:15 P.M..:  I woke up at 6 A.M. this morning. I ate breakfast of oatmeal with honey and a sliced banana, two toasted mini bagels with olive oil, orange and grape and cranraspberry juice with vitamins and supplements and coffee with milk and splenda sweetener.  I went back to bed until 9 A.M..  I made my bed, and I washed the breakfast dishes.  I threw out some old boxes that various computer items arrived in that I had stored above my file cabinet in the bedroom.  I put in their place the Cablevision shipping box, and the box with the spare 3 foot IDE cables, and the DVD/RW box with the spare CD/RW player.  I sorted out the paper work I had stored to the right of the bedroom desk, and I put each category in plastic paper bags in the top file cabinet.  I put the older model HP Deskjet 842C printer that needed ink cartridges in the car, along with the Sharp UX B-20 fax machine that needed an ink cartridge, and the Lexmark X1185 all purpose fax, copier, printer, and scanner inkjet that needed ink cartridges, and the Visioneer 4400 USB scanner all in the Buick wagon.  I moved the two DeLonghi oil filled radiators from the right of the bedroom desk to one in the hallway by the sweater closet and one in front of the chair in front of the stereo system, so they are ready for colder days in the winter.  In my right desk drawer open for use,  I found two rolls of Scotch tape, so I am not out of it.  I also found some U.S.A. flag decals, so I put one on the driver's side rear lower window of the Buick wagon to the right of the Bermuda emblem.  Currently the host country does not seem to know it is the host country.   I picked up my mail.  www.forbes.com offered me two free year subscriptions for anyone else, if I bought one for $60, but I know Forbes is a cheap Scottish businessman, so he will have to forgive me for not renewing my subscription whenever it runs out, unless I find another $8 a year deal. I have not have time to read it, but it makes my apartment more politically correct.  I printed out a list of the items that I would be donating to the Greenwich Hospital Thrift Shop which were:

10 year old Hoover Upright Vacuum Cleaner in new condition

2 Hoover Upright Drive Belts

8 Hoover Upright Vacuum bags

One 15 year old Electrolux Tank Vacuum with hose and power sweeper

Two Electrolux Hoses

Three Electrolux metal extension tubes

One Electrolux floor brush

One Electrolux furniture brush

Sharp UX B-20 fax machine which needs ink cartridge

Lexmark X1185 all purpose fax, copier, inkjet printer, and scanner that needed ink cartridges

HP Deskjet 842C inkjet printer that needs ink cartridges

Epson 4400 USB scanner

I then ate a baloney and cheese sandwich with potato chips and a slice of dill pickle with a glass of iced tea.  I then showered, and I cleaned up.  I went out, and I went by the Greenwich Hospital Thrift shop, and I donated the above mentioned items, and I received an income tax deduction slip.  I was told that the Greenwich Hospital Thrift Shop bought Longo Rentals shop on Old Track Road in Byram, so they will be moving there soon.  I then went downtown, and I could not find my parking permit for the Senior center, since it seems to have disappeared, so I was issued another one.  I can not figure out what happened to it, since I always keep my car locked.  I ran into another regular walker, and I walked with that walker up Milbank Avenue, we chatted with somebody building four white condominiums on Milbank Avenue about half way up, and we were told they are going for $4.5 million apiece.  I told the builder I had lived at 100 Milbank Avenue at one time, and that I thought it was a noisy street at rush hour in the morning when the back country people drive downtown to the train station.  We walked up to East Putnam Avenue, and then we walked west as far as Christ Church, and we chatted with a local retired policeman directing traffic at the funeral there.  We then walked west to Garlick and Herbs, and my fellow walker had a cup of coffee there, while I smoked a couple of cigarettes.  We then walked back down Greenwich Avenue, and we chatted with another regular.  I then used the bathroom at the senior and the arts center.  I chatted with the other regular.  I then walked lower Greenwich Avenue and the train station area.  I then sat out briefly for a while.  I then went by the Food Emporium, and I bought four 10 ounce boxes of white cheddar Cheese Its for $1.99 each box, a 64 ounce container of Minute Maid orange juice with calcium for $2, and a 100 count box of Lipton tea bags for $3.59 and Dole green bananas for .69 a pound for $1.90 for $15.45 total.  I then returned home.  I chatted with a neighbor.  I put a quart of Castrol 10W40 oil in my Buick wagonengine, so it is topped up.  I drive so little recently, I forget to do some regular maintenance checks.  I think the last time I added oil was in Kennebunkport, Maine in August 2007, so I use a quart in driving down and my regular driving here since then.  I chatted with my relative, and www.fedex.com finally delivered Bed Bath & Beyond Product Watergard™ Bath Mat . I opened up the package of six boneless chicken breasts, and I put four of them in a large flat Rubbermaid container.   I then rinsed off the other two in cold water, and I dried them with a paper towel.   I then put a thin coat of olive oil in a Pyrex pie dish, and on a separate plate, I rubbed the bottom side of the boneless chicken breasts with olive oil, and then I spread a thick coating of Italian seasoned bread crumbs on them, and then I did the same with the top side and the other boneless chicken breasts.   I then put them in the Pyrex pie dish, and I baked them in the Farberware convection oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 35 minutes.  I also made up a batch of http://www.geocities.com/mikelscott/mlsrice.htm to which I also added two teaspoons of Kikkoman soy sauce and oregano Seasoning and chicken bullion seasoning.  I ate half, and I put the other half in a Rubbermaid container in the refrigerator.  I also steamed in a two quart Revere pot with steamer tray and lid about 1.5 cups of baby carrots and broccoli crowns for 15 minutes on medium high electric burner heat, and I put some olive oil on the vegetables.  I put the other baked boneless chicken breast in a Rubbermaid container in the refrigerator.  I ate it all with a glass of iced tea.  I chatted with my relative again.  CIO

Note: <888> 10/14/07 Sunday 6:15 P.M..:  I woke up at 6 A.M. this morning.  I ordered a bargain no longer available from Endless.com: Slippers International Men's 8018A Deerskin Moccasin Slipper: Categories in size 9 medium in antique color for $19.89 less one day free shipping discount of $5 for $14.89 total.  I ate breakfast of oatmeal with honey and a sliced banana, two toasted mini bagels with olive oil, orange and grape and cranraspberry juice with vitamins and supplements and coffee with milk and splenda sweetener.  I made my bed, and I washed the breakfast dishes.  I took out the two old Electrolux tank vacuum cleaners with one with a power nozzle and an old Hoover upright vacuum along with their spare parts and bags, and I put them in the rear of the Buick wagon to donate later.  I gave one of my neighbor's my last Electrolux bag.  I put the new Hoover in the bedroom closet where the old vacuum cleaners had been along with the Sears Upright.  I went downtown, and I brought my photography equipment with me.  I walked the entire length of Greenwich Avenue and the train station area, and I took 204 pictures with the Nikon CoolPix 4600 digital 4.1 mp camera.  I have the picture links posted below.  I use three sets of two used alkaline AA batteries taking the pictures.  Since the Nikon has an LCD screen, it uses batteries faster.  I have rechargeable Metal Hydride AA batteries that I can use if I chose.  If one uses Metal Hydride batteries, one has to set the camera for them.  I stopped by the Greenwich Cigar store, and I bought a Cash Craze scratch card for a dollar, but I lost.  I stopped by CVS, and I bought a 108 tablet box of St. Joseph 81 mg. chewable aspirin for $6.49 less my $5 coupon that I printed out yesterday for $1.49 total.  I used the bathroom at Starbucks.  After my photography session, I stopped by the Stop and Shop, and I bought a six pack of boneless breasts of chicken for $1.99 a pound for $7.16, buy one six pack of Thomas' English muffins, get one free for $2.99 both, a quart jar of B&G kosher dill pickles for $2.99, three 64 ounce containers of Stop and Shop cranraspberry juice for $2 each, a five pound bag of yellow onions for $2.79 for $21.93 total.   I then returned home, and I put away my purchases, and I posted the pictures.  I made and ate my burger with sautéed onions and cheese dinner, which I ate it with steamed flavored rice and steamed broccoli crowns and baby carrots with a glass of iced tea.  I will now do some regular computer work.  The Nikon digital camera seems to work just fine, but I have to remember to squeeze the shutter half way to let it focus, and then press it all the way, instead of just pressing it all the way in one stroke.  CIO

I will now shut down the primary Vista computer, and I will go to bed soon.  CIO

Note: <888> 10/13/07 Saturday 9:00 P.M..:  I tried to get the Via Audio drivers to work on the Northgate Syntax computer in the Vista SP1 beta partition, but they do not.  The Northgate Syntax computer is an older computer, so possibly it will not be supported in future Vista updates.  I watched some High Def television.  From what I can tell, I am pretty much caught up on all of my regular computer activity, so once I have some extra funds next month, I might try to venture downtown for a little bit of exercise walking.  Of course from what I can tell, not much has changed around here, but with the higher prices of fuel, it is a bit slower around here than in the past.  Since in the good old days of growing up in back country Greenwich, I was used to staying at home for long periods of time, I suppose it is not really necessary to go downtown for a walk every day.  Anyway I seem to be getting a bit more work done at home.  Not much available in the way of bottom fishing on the internet, since I do not have the funds to buy anything anyway.  The good old days of driving into Manhattan for a walk around the city on a few dollars of gasoline are long since gone.  Even the train costs about $20 round trip into Manhattan.  From what I can tell on local television, a lot of people are drinking a lot of alcohol and pursuing club activity in Manhattan, so I guess the Big City life style has not changed much.  Since  I have not been to a pub or ordered a drink in a long time, I do not know what they even cost anymore.  I think the last time I was in a pub about 15 years or more ago, a drink in Manhattan cost about $4, and we use to tip a dollar.  Beers might have been a dollar cheaper.  Of course now that I have become a computer nerd, everyone in Greenwich where people can still afford to drink alcohol seem to find me boring, since the liberal democrats seem to like to party a lot, which also means they pursue recreational activities in terms of drinking alcohol.  From what I can tell, since they can afford it, a great many back country people still drive into Manhattan for recreation as opposed to pursuing the local activity out here in the woods.  For the locals, they can look forward to raking or blowing leaves pretty soon, when they begin to fall.  CIO
